Suzanne L. Holliday, 72
September 11, 1948 - August 29, 2021
Suzanne L. Holliday, 72, of Lititz, passed away on Sunday, August 29, 2021, while being treated at UPMC Pinnacle in Lititz following a long and varied set of health issues. Born in Lancaster, she was the daughter of the late James and Elizabeth (Orendorff) Bowman. Suzanne was the beloved wife of Edward “Jeff” Holliday, and they were both looking forward to their 52nd wedding anniversary coming up in mid-September.
Along with her husband Jeff, Suzanne is survived by her son, Sean Holliday, her daughter-in-law, Miki, and her grandson, Finnegan. Suzanne’s sister, Sandy Singer and her family, are also among those affected by this loss.
Suzanne was skilled in needlecrafts – embroidery, quilting and general sewing – and making miscellaneous crafts for family, friends and fundraising events. Traveling abroad and domestic was a much loved, shared vocation for the entire family. She was especially anxiously awaiting many chances to visit Sean, Miki and young grandson Finnegan.
Before retiring from Edward Jones Investments, Suzanne had a varied work history, including working at a travel agency, several retail sales jobs, church secretary and tour guide. Her family was most proud of her jobs as being a wife and mother.
Many thanks to all of the health care workers who shared their talents in trying to heal both Suzanne and all others in need.
A celebration of life service will be planned and announced for a future date. Please, no flowers. A memorial contribution plan will be decided upon at a later time.

I am so sorry to hear of Sue’s passing. We graduated together from McCaskey in the Class of 66. We, also, went to the same church, Faith UCC, and I still do. Her mother, Mrs. Bowman, was a good friend of mine. I have a fond memory of going to Camp Andrews with Sue in the summer of 63. She was always upbeat and fun to be around…no pretense at all and WILL BE MISSED! My prayers are with her family. Donna (Barley) Kranz

Jeff and Sean,
We are so very sorry to hear of the sudden passing of Sue. She was a loving , caring, always happy person. The work that you both did for the “One to World ” program over the years was so great. All the students who came to Lititz and got an Amish country tour by both of you will always remember their time with you both. We really loved getting to know Sue and Jeff through this program. She will be truly missed.
Al and Deb Rothermel
